Couple more suggestions:

1) Make the usernames in the VBStopForumSpam Log linkable to the user record so that when reviewing the log we can easily click to open that user and delete / ban

2) When adding the ability to "Add user to StopForum" I would love to see it in 2 places: a) the thread/post itself for deleting thread/post, deleting (or banning?) user and reporting to StopForum in one click b) the user drop down within a thread/post to delete and report user c) in the User record in Admin to select delete and report as a drop down option.

I had 10 or so slip by this morning and was looking high and low for the submit to SF option only to come back here and see it has not been added yet, doh!

#1 - not a problem, that can be easily added. Its going to POST a form to the user search function as the user is assigned an ID after vbSFS has completed its processing. I would have to add another plugin to link to a user id directly. You shouldnt really notice any difference unless you click a user that was blocked and then the search would return no results.

#2 - I can add that with a two forms. I emailed russ about remote form submitting and never got a reply. If he changes the way the form is submitted (ie hidden input values, cookie verification etc) on his site, then any form I make will instantly be broken. I was hopnig that he would finalise a submit API. Until then, I guess we can work around those :)

I dont have a license for 3.7 Im sorry so there is no way that I can even update the script. Unless vbulletin.com let people run a copy on a private network, Im sprry but a LOT of mods will never get ported beyond 3.6.x :(

I *might* be able to use a friends board but hes not purchased any upgrades.. Hes thinking about it.

Ive just had an email back from vbulletin.com who specifically said that if I wanted to write mods for 3.7, then I would have to pay to upgrade my license. Im not willing to pay a lot of cash to upgrade my forum (thats not used anymore) just in order to write free, non-paid mods Im sorry.

#1 is done and is with someone for testing, will be in v0.5

#2 As I mentioned in the original mod post, there are plenty of ban/delete/clean up mods out there, all linking from thread/post/forum pages. Ill see how I can add the report to the website without breaking any of the 1-click ban/delete mods... if I did, I would be very unpopular. This will require template changes so Ill try my best.

ive looked at th one-stop clean/ban plugin and it looks like I can add a "submit to stopformspam" in much the same way, in the same places. its not a small piece of code change so it might take me a little while Im afraid.

Anyone confirm whether this works on 3.6.2? I know I'm a little behind on upgrades.... but this would invaluable!!!

Just used the Stop Forum Spam site to remove one today, would be great to have it automated!

edit register.php and search for register_addmember_process and register_addmember_complete - if you find them in something that says hook on the same line, then it should work.

This is a great mod. Can you pretty pretty please port it to 3.7 ?

So StopForumSpam.com has stopped responding (5/23 4amPST) for the last 30 min or so (DOS??). The result is that registrations are failing with a blank white screen.

Errors being thrown are:

Code:

Database error in vBulletin 3.6.10:



Invalid SQL:

INSERT HIGH_PRIORITY IGNORE INTO vbstopforumspam_remotecache (date, data, spambot, field) VALUES (now(), '124.8.230.120', '0', 'ip');;

Tried adjusting time out settings with no success.. bummer.

Thanks will give this a bash ... if and when the site comes back up!

Site is back up, albeit a bit slow at the moment.

No mention of what happened on the SFS forum.

Denial of service?

Since installing this I wasn't getting any new registrants where I had multiple eaach day. I tested it and when any of the checking features is enabled I get this error:

Fatal error: Cannot instantiate non-existent class: simplexmlelement in /home/content/XXXXXXX/html/forum/includes/functions_vbsfs.php on line 47

What gives?
